DO NOT PLAY SPORTS WITH YOUR WOODEN WATCH
You are athletic ? She prefers to take it easy! So if you are going to hit the gym, consider leaving your watch at home. Indeed, if you take your workout seriously, it's a safe bet that perspiration is there ... However, wood is a natural material that does not really like humidity. In addition, the risk of knocks, dirt or splashes associated with jogging or any other physical activity could damage your pretty wooden watch. The mechanism inside may be solid, it is better to avoid the risk of unnecessary shocks!

For these occasions, prefer a sports watch, generally made up of a rubber strap.

PAY ATTENTION TO HUMIDITY
As we told you earlier, wood and humidity don't mix! The natural material we use guarantees you resistant products, but they are not intended to be waterproof. Our models are not designed to be in excessive and prolonged contact with water, at the risk of deforming the wood of the bracelet. Of course, it doesn't matter if a few drops splash your wooden watch when you wash your hands. However, always remember to remove your watch before taking a shower or diving in your pool.

Too late ? Oops. If you've accidentally immersed your watch and water has entered the dial, go to a watchmaker. This can limit the damage!

AVOID THE SUN AND TEMPERATURE VARIATIONS WITH WOODEN FASHION ACCESSORIES

A protective case or its original storage box will be preferable to hasty storage in your pocket or backpack!

Therefore, check regularly that the battery is still in working order.
